Elvish Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 This is scary, Ken. I've had this song in my head for days - even been singing it to the little one (he loves it! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miamisammy29 Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 For those of who you want to get that tune OUT OF YOUR HEADS ONCE AND FOR ALL, here's a little earworm that I think will accomplish that... MUSICAL INTERLUDE: "Ah we can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance Well they aren't no friends of mine I say, we can go where we want to, to a place where they'll never find And we can act like we come from out of this world and leave the real one far behind, and we can dance Ah we can dance if we want to, we can leave your friends behind Cause your friends don't dance and if they don't dance Well they aren't no friends of mine I say, we can go where we want to, to a place where they'll never find And we can act like we come from out of this world and leave the real one far behind, and we can dance And we can Sing! Ah we can go when we want to, the night is young and so am I And we can dress real neat from our hearts to our feet and surprise 'em with the victory cry I Say we can act if want to, if we don't nobody will And you can act real rude and totally removed And I can act like an imbecile I say we can dance, we can dance everything's out of control We can dance, we can dance we're doing it pole to pole We can dance, we can dance everybody look at your hands We can dance, we can dance everybody's takin' the chaaaaaaance Safety dance Safety dance Safety dance" (Blah Blah Blah, Yada Yada Yada) Hah! So there!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Posted September 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 I used to do the same for my son. The song I used to sing him was Bob Seger's "Jody Girl". Used to calm him down. That, or I used to put on a disc I have of Meryl Streep reading the children's story "The Velveteen Rabbit" with George Winston at the piano. Ken.

Tenacious_Peaches Posted September 13, 2005 Report Share Posted September 13, 2005 I did it just for you, baby. I didn't even attempt to censor it...I typed out those four letters, knowing they would be bleeped out. And I feel very good for doing so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
